January Showcase #1

January - Showcase #1

Here is my first project for Silhouette Challenges

 
 The challenges are always Anything Goes.

I'm still learning about my Silhouette Cameo and I'm having fun doing it.

Did you know that you can make up your own designs and cut them with the Cameo?


I started out with my Rhodia Dot Pad and came up with this drawing.

 
As you can see it is a very simple drawing, after drawing it out I scanned the drawing and imported it into my Cameo software.
 
 
I did a copy and paste to make 5 flowers then I cut the 5 stems the same way.

 
I used the software's erase feature to remove the lines in my drawing on the stems.

 
Some circles for the flower centers and I was all set.
 
I had to cut an additional flower because I stated with 5 but ended up needing 6.
 
 
After looking it for a couple of days I decided that I needed to add a sun. I didn't take pictures of the process but I did stamp the sun onto a piece of the Rhodia Dot Pad, scanned it and took it into my Cameo software and cut it out.
 
All images were cut onto vinyl.
